Appen Butler Hill
Monthly Invoice Process
Non-US Consultants
Process Description
This process explains the Appen Butler Hill (ABH) invoicing and payment information. It provides information on
how to use the ADP system to submit invoices and check payment status.
Appen Butler Hill contracts with ADP for the use of their application. This is the system that Appen
Butler Hill uses to track consultant hours for invoicing purposes. ADP is not an Appen Butler Hill
proprietary system. All language used in the ADP EZ Labor Manager is ADP exclusive language.
Payment Information
Introduction
Appen Butler Hill processes consultant payments on a monthly basis. The payment process is initiated by
consultants entering hours each week in ADP EzLaborManager for hours completed. The deadline for monthly
invoices is the 3rd Friday of each month. Payments are sent out during the first week of the following month.
Setting up Payment
Non-US Citizens living outside the US are paid by bank wire (see payment information below) after completing a
banking information request form which will be sent via email from Renee Kimble ([email protected]).
Payments
Anyone living outside of the US and who doesn’t have US Citizenship is paid by wire services that will be sent within
the first 7 business days of the month following the end of the invoice cycle.
A copy of your contract can be used in response to requests for a reference and/or proof of contract work with
Appen Butler Hill. It is the responsibility of each consultant to retain a record of their earnings, as annual totals are
not provided by ABH for non-US payments. Please be aware that ABH does not provide references or verifications
of contracted work.
Late Invoices
If you do not submit your consultant hours by the deadline (3rd Friday of each month), you will need to
enter this time on the next invoice cycle.
Contact [email protected] for instructions
Payment for late invoices will be paid the following invoice cycle
